Speaker 1: Also on today's run, Oh now, everybody wants to jump

00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,960

17
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 2: called it entertaining, Trump turns to actors in their golden

18
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 2: years to bring back the Golden Age of Hollywood, and

19
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 2: a baseball player who became a baseball legend after his

20
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:16,200
Speaker 2: playing career. We will honor the great Bobyuker if you

21
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 2: haven't seen just yet the sad news about him. But

22
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 2: what a life. That baseball legend has finally passed. And

23
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 2: it's a remarkable story.

24
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, it really is, and it's a remarkable news day.

25
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 1: We even couldn't put in all the news today. There's

26
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:31,680
Speaker 1: so much to tell you about, but let's try to

27
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:34,279
Speaker 1: get to it. The first leg of our run brings

28
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,680
Speaker 1: us to La where fire evacue's got an update yesterday

29
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 1: that they've been waiting to hear, but it was not

30
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 1: what they wanted to hear. They will not be allowed

31
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,760
Speaker 1: back into some affected neighborhoods for at least another week. Yeah.

32
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,520
Speaker 2: People have grown increasingly frustrated now a week and a

33
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 2: half into this disaster that they haven't been allowed to

34
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 2: get back to their properties. In some cases, yes, they

35
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 2: know their property is gone, but they want to do

36
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 2: a damage assessment or they want to try to salvage

37
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 2: what they can from their homes, including in some of

38
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 2: that rubble.

39
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's so understandable. Everybody would feel the same

40
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: way in that position. But fire officials say it's just

41
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 1: not safe right now. There's toxic waste, there's debris.

42
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 3: Power lines, gas lines, sewage lines.

43
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:15,799
Speaker 1: It's all a huge mess and we can attest to

44
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: that having been allowed up there is it is truly

45
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 1: a dangerous mess.

46
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 3: The county sheriff said.

47
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 1: There are some areas they're keeping clothes also because sadly

48
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,799
Speaker 1: they still expect to find bodies inside the rubble.

49
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,640
Speaker 2: And then there's the growing threat of mud slides. Fire

50
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 2: tore through steep hillsides and a lot of that is

51
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 2: now destabilized earth with piles of heavy debris essentially teetering

52
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 2: on the side of a hill. So you're throw in

53
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 2: the huge volumes of water being doused on the fires,

54
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 2: or there could be a relevant rain and the potential

55
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 2: is there.

56
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 1: Meanwhile, fires are still burning and the death toll is

57
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 1: still rising. Authority say twenty seven people have been confirmed

58
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 1: they died and another thirty missing. Fire Crews continue gaining

59
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 1: ground on the two largest fires. That has some good news.

60
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: Palisades is now twenty seven percent contained, the Eton fire

61
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: is fifty five percent contained.

62
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:14,359
Speaker 2: Firefighters are expected to have a continued wind repeat reprieve

63
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 2: the next couple of days before casters warn of the

64
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 2: return of strong, potentially dangerous high winds early next week, but.

65
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: At least there's some time for them to continue to

66
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 1: fight those fires. We're going to stay in LA for

67
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 1: the next leg of our run. Where State Farm says

68
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 1: it's canceling a planned Super Bowl ad so they can

69
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 1: direct all resources towards helping their customers in the LA area.

70
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 2: The company told CBS News in a statement, our focus

71
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 2: is firmly on providing support to the people of Los Angeles.

72
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 2: We will not be advertising during the game as originally planned.

73
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 2: The company deployed what it described as the full scale

74
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 2: and force of its catastrophe response teams to help the victims.

75
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 1: In addition, the company announced it will now offer policy

76
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 1: renewals to customers in the affected areas. And that's a

77
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 1: major about face for the company. Back in twenty twenty three,

78
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: it announced it would stop offering home insurance to new

79
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 1: customers because of wildfire risks, and then just last year,

80
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 1: they weren't even further announcing the company would no longer

81
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: offer policy renewals to existing customers.

82
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, this report of the resultant and some sixteen hundred

83
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 2: policy holders losing insurance, specifically in Pacific Palisades. Stay Farm

84
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 2: so as customers who were due to get non renewal notices,

85
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,559
Speaker 2: will now have the option to renew their policy. Stafe

86
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,480
Speaker 2: Farm is one of the largest insurers in the state,

87
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 2: has already received about eight thousand home and auto claims.

88
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 2: This is we talked about State Farm here, but this

89
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 2: has been an insurance trend, especially in California. Several companies

90
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 2: are doing this is just too much of a fire risk.

91
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,479
Speaker 2: It's costing them too much, so they stop either issuing

92
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 2: policies or renewing policies. A lot of people are without

93
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 2: insurance in that area.

94
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's so sad where the places that needed the most,

95
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:57,719
Speaker 1: and the same thing has been happening in parts of

96
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: Florida as well. It certainly is a trend, not a

97
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 1: good one for homeowners, all right. Next up on the

98
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 1: run Lady Gaga, Billie Eilish, Sting, Jelly Roll, Joni Mitchell,

99
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 1: Tate McCrae, earth Wind and Fire Pink, Katie Perry, Stevie

100
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 1: nicks Ah.

101
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 3: And that's not even the.

102
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 1: Entire list of artists who are scheduled to perform at

103
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 1: Fire Aid. The benefit concert was announced last week, but

104
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,159
Speaker 1: we didn't have a confirmed lineup until now.

105
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 2: Also, when it was first announced to The concert was

106
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 2: supposed to take place at the into It Dome that's

107
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,359
Speaker 2: the home of the La Clippers. It's now going to

108
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 2: take place in two places. Yes, the Indo A Dome

109
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 2: will still be used, but also the Kia Forum is

110
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 2: going to be used for the concert. So they got

111
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,840
Speaker 2: two venues. These two venues are right next to each other.

112
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,359
Speaker 2: The concert is going to be broadcast and live streamed

113
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 2: on January thirtieth. All the proceeds are going to designated

114
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,479
Speaker 2: charities that you'll know about ahead of time, but they

115
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 2: say one hundred percent of the proceeds going there.

116
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 3: That's very cool.

117
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 1: So many artists, so many people wanting to perform, they

118
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 1: had to have two locations.

119
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:55,280
Speaker 2: Love that.

120
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:57,240
Speaker 1: Next up on our run, we're going to turn to

121
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 1: the Israel Hamas conflict and a reason to hold on

122
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,480
Speaker 1: to hope. This morning, after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyaho

123
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,880
Speaker 1: announced a deal has in fact been reached to release

124
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:08,799
Speaker 1: the hostages held in Gaza.

125
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 2: But it was just yesterday. A lot of people were

126
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:15,359
Speaker 2: nervous because net Nyahu's office said Hamas had renigged on

127
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:19,719
Speaker 2: a previously announced ceasefire deal, which caused a last minute

128
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 2: crisis but now seems the deal is done.

129
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 1: As of this recording, the Israeli Cabinet was meeting to

130
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,720
Speaker 1: discuss the deal, expected to vote on that agreement at

131
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,839
Speaker 1: some point today, which would bring a halt to the

132
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:33,320
Speaker 1: fighting and see the release of all hostages in exchange

133
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 1: for Palestinian prisoners.

134
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, there are three Americans still be believed to be

135
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 2: alive among the thirty three or so hostages still believed. Hell,

136
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,600
Speaker 2: they could be as we said Robes expecting as early

137
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 2: as Sunday that those hostages could be released after a

138
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,359
Speaker 2: year and a half. I guess almost a year and

139
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 2: three months of this conflict which has been going on

140
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 2: and killed an estimated forty six thousand Palestinians in the

141
00:06:58,279 --> 00:06:59,599
Speaker 2: fifteen months of the conflict.

142
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,159
Speaker 1: Hope this cease fire holds next up on the run,

143
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,480
Speaker 1: we could hear the news. One hundred and seven million

144
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 1: Americans have been waiting anxiously for later this morning. The

145
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: Supreme Court announced yesterday it may issue opinions today starting

146
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 1: at ten am Eastern time, and those opinions might include

147
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 1: a ruling on a new law that will force TikTok

148
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 1: sale or ban in the United States.

149
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 2: Have that law been much talked about here lately, but

150
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 2: it had wide bipartisan support when it was signed last

151
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 2: year by President Biden. It was signed and put in

152
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 2: place there because of concerns that the Chinese owned app

153
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 2: would allow China to spy on Americans, steal their information,

154
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 2: or possibly spread propaganda.

155
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 1: And it was one week ago that the Justice has

156
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: heard arguments on the validity of that law, and by

157
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 1: most accounts, the justices appeared inclined to uphold it. And

158
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 1: that's certainly not the news most users are hoping for,

159
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 1: some of whom are content creators who use the site

160
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 1: for their livelihoods. So without any intervention, that ban will

161
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 1: go into effects starting this Sunday, January nineteenth.

162
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 2: So what can be done? For its part? The Biden

163
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 2: administration announced, Hey, it ain't our problem. They put it

164
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,760
Speaker 2: all on the incoming administration, saying the White House will

165
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:14,239
Speaker 2: not get involved to save the app, but also won't

166
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 2: take action to enforce the law either.

167
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,679
Speaker 1: Even New York Senator Chuck Schumer has said it's clear

168
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 1: that more time is needed to find an American buyer.

169
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 1: Many users are pinning their hopes on President elect Trump,

170
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 1: who takes office exactly one day after the band goes

171
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 1: into effect. Trump has said he's considering an executive order

172
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,560
Speaker 1: to suspend the band's enforcement for two to three months

173
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 1: while he negotiates with the social media company.

174
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 2: There have been rumor circulating that Trump's billionaire buddy Elon

175
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 2: Musk might purchase the company, but those might just be

176
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:49,560
Speaker 2: rumors and false hopes at this point. Also some hopes

177
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 2: that maybe this can get worked out in Washington, DC

178
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 2: next week. Again, the bang goes in place on Sunday. Sunday.

179
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:01,599
Speaker 2: Trump takes office on Monday. There is question whether or

180
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 2: not he has the legal authority he can even take

181
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:10,839
Speaker 2: executive action to stop a law that Congress passed, so

182
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 2: he might not have the option the Supreme Court. Well,

183
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,960
Speaker 2: if you listen to those arguments, didn't sound like they're

184
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 2: inclined to save TikTok right now either.

185
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 1: Well, the CEO of TikTok will be at Trump's inauguration

186
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,560
Speaker 1: on Monday. Maybe the two of them can talk it out.

187
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,200
Speaker 2: We shall see. We'll stay with us here on this

188
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:32,320
Speaker 2: Friday morning run when we come back. The President has

189
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,840
Speaker 2: cast a group of actors as his new special envoys

190
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 2: to Hollywood. Also, the New York City mayor taking a

191
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 2: visit down to mar A Lago and one of the

192
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 2: most powerful couples in Hollywood just got hit with a

193
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,319
Speaker 2: four hundred million dollar lossuit.

194
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 3: Welcome back to Morning Run.

195
00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 1: Next up on the Run, we are heading to Florida,

196
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 1: where Governor DeSantis has appointed a new senator to the

197
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 1: Sunshine State, or on behalf of the Sunshine State. Florida

198
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 1: State Attorney General Ashley Moody will fill the seat of

199
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 1: Marco Rubio, who looks well on his way to becoming

200
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,960
Speaker 1: President Elect Trump's new Secretary of States.

201
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:18,319
Speaker 2: Moody easily won her first election for Florida's Attorney General

202
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 2: back in twenty eighteen one again in twenty twenty two.

203
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 2: Her appointed seat, though comes with some limits. She will

204
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,560
Speaker 2: have to run for reelection next year in a twenty

205
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 2: twenty six special election in order to keep the seat

206
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:31,559
Speaker 2: for the final two years of Rubio's term.

207
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:33,840
Speaker 1: Moody has been a close ally of DeSantis and has

208
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,160
Speaker 1: served as his chief legal arm on a lot of

209
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 1: political fights with the Biden administration, including suing FEMA last year.

210
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:44,679
Speaker 1: Her lawsuit accused FEMA officials of discriminating against Trump supporters

211
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 1: by withholding Hurricane aid after Helene.

212
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 2: And Milton, a famous supervisor, was later fired for directing

213
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 2: workers to skip over houses that displayed Trump signs and flags.

214
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 2: Moody said during yesterday's press conference that she will focus

215
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:01,080
Speaker 2: on illegal immigration and the other priorities of Trump administration

216
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:02,680
Speaker 2: during her time in the Senate.

217
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 1: In her words, I'm ready to show up and fight

218
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,959
Speaker 1: for this nation and fight for President Trump to deliver

219
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:12,080
Speaker 1: the America First Agenda on day one. Moody's appointment will

220
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 1: set a new record for Republican women. When she takes office,

221
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,440
Speaker 1: she will be the tenth GOP woman in the Senate

222
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,719
Speaker 1: and also with our eye on Capitol Hill. If you

223
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 1: would like some appointment viewing nine am Eastern today, South

224
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 1: Dakota Governor Christy Nome is going to face members of

225
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,959
Speaker 1: Congress Senate in her confirmation hearing. That is Trump's pick

226
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 1: for Homeland Security Secretary. She is a very vocal and

227
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 1: interesting woman. We've had the pleasure of interviewing, so this

228
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 1: should be I think it'll be an interesting confirmation hearing.

229
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been a very busy week for confirmation hearings

230
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 2: on Capitol Hill. We will continue now on our run.

231
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 2: I won't need confirmation hearings for these guys. But man,

232
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,959
Speaker 2: these are an interesting cast of characters that the President

233
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 2: is adding to his administration. In particular, he has cast

234
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 2: Sylvester still On, Mel Gibson, and John Voight for new roles. Yes,

235
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 2: they will be special ambassadors to Hollywood, special envoys. Yes,

236
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 2: to Hollywood.

237
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 3: I like how you said he cast them. Yeah.

238
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 1: Trump made the announcement on social media, calling Hollywood a

239
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 1: great but troubled place. He said, the three actors will

240
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 1: serve as special envoys to me for the purpose of

241
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 1: bringing Hollywood, which has lost much business over the last

242
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 1: four years to foreign countries, back bigger, better, and stronger.

243
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:29,960
Speaker 3: Than ever before. Exclamation point.

244
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 1: These three very talented people will be my eyes and ears,

245
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,679
Speaker 1: and I will get done what they suggest. It will

246
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:39,959
Speaker 1: again be like the United States of America itself, the

247
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:41,959
Speaker 1: golden age of Hollywood.

248
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:42,839
Speaker 3: That is all from Trump.

249
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 2: So exactly what will Gibson, Voight and Stallone be doing

250
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 2: h We just don't know. This is a brand new thing.

251
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 2: So it seems Mel Gibson doesn't know either what he's

252
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:56,440
Speaker 2: going to be doing. And he didn't even know he

253
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 2: was getting the gig. He said in a statement that

254
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 2: he quote got the tweet at the same time as

255
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 2: all of you, and was just as surprised. Nevertheless, I

256
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 2: heed the call. My duty as a citizen is to

257
00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 2: give any help and insight I can.

258
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 1: Gibson, who lost his home in the LA fires, did

259
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,080
Speaker 1: throw in a little humor, saying any chance the position

260
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:20,760
Speaker 1: comes with an ambassador's residence. A little humor didn't hurt Gibson.

261
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,880
Speaker 1: Stallone and Voyd have been public supporters of the President elect,

262
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 1: and well we'll see what they do with their new roles.

263
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 2: You know, I think we've been looking for little ways.

264
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 2: I've been surprised if people, the folks we've talked to

265
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 2: who have lost so much tour in the fires, have

266
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 2: found ways to inject a little levity at times in

267
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,520
Speaker 2: just the perfect way. Even this line from mel Gibson

268
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:43,120
Speaker 2: off his home, and that was well done. I thought,

269
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 2: nice little nugget in these tough times. We'll continue our

270
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 2: run now on the next leg. We're going to head

271
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,319
Speaker 2: down tomorrow Lago, and so is New York City Mayor

272
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 2: Eric Adams.

273
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,560
Speaker 1: He's scheduled to sit down with the President elect today

274
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 1: at his Florida home, which has served as his transition headquarters,

275
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:01,200
Speaker 1: and to seeing a parade of influential visitors since the election.

276
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,960
Speaker 1: So why is Adams going well. According to his office,

277
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 1: it's to discuss New Yorker's priorities and on ways to

278
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 1: move the city and country forward.

279
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,080
Speaker 2: But according to his critics, as something else, he's got

280
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 2: another reason to head down to Florida. Trump might be

281
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 2: his get out of jail free card. Adams, as you know,

282
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 2: is under a five count federal indictment on bribery and

283
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 2: campaign finance charges. Trump will be president in a matter

284
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,840
Speaker 2: of days and will have the ability to pardon Adams,

285
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:34,200
Speaker 2: something that Trump has actually expressed a willingness to do.

286
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, Adam's trial is scheduled for April. That's just a

287
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:39,480
Speaker 1: couple of months before his name will be on the

288
00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 1: primary ballot against a crowded field once again for New

289
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 1: York mayor.

290
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:45,240
Speaker 3: Seems like he has a lot on his.

291
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,280
Speaker 1: Agenda, but one thing may be more pressing than the others.

292
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 2: We will continue here on this Friday morning now with

293
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 2: talk about one of Hollywood's biggest power couples now being

294
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 2: sued for four hundred million dollars. Ryan Reynolds and Blake

295
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:02,320
Speaker 2: Lively are being a cute of defamation and extortion, among

296
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 2: other things by Liveli's it ends with US co star

297
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 2: Justin Baldoni. This is the latest move in a legal,

298
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 2: ugly and public back and forth between Baldoni and Lively.

299
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's so complicated, we've kind of avoided talking about it,

300
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,200
Speaker 1: but now it's risen to such a level we have to.

301
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:22,800
Speaker 1: According to Baldoni's lawyers, the intention of the lawsuit is

302
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 1: first to set the record straight regarding Lively sexual harassment

303
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 1: accusations against him, and second to sect the record straight

304
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 1: about Lively and Reynolds's behavior. According to Baldoni, his lawsuit

305
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 1: says Lively used her star power to steal the film

306
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 1: right out of the hands of its director, which was Baldoni,

307
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 1: and the production studio, which was produced and co financed

308
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 1: by Baldoni.

309
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:49,120
Speaker 2: Baldoni's lawsuit identifies Lively, like we all do, as one

310
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 2: of the biggest and most famous people out of Hollywood

311
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 2: right now, and she has a lot of power, and

312
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:57,239
Speaker 2: according to this lawsuit, she set out to destroy livelihoods

313
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 2: as businesses that they did not bend to her insects

314
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 2: and demands, and when they refused to give way, she

315
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 2: did exactly that, accusing them of foul and reprehensible sexual misconduct.

316
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:12,160
Speaker 2: All that, according to the lawsuit, all these allegations about

317
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 2: sexual misconduct, Baldoni immediately and repeatedly and strongly denies.

318
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 1: Now late last year, Lively first filed a civil rights

319
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 1: complaint against Baldoni. She then officially filed a lawsuit against

320
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 1: him and his public relations team for allegedly orchestrating a

321
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 1: sophisticated plan to smear her reputation in retaliation, she says,

322
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:38,680
Speaker 1: for speaking up about his sexual misconduct on the set.

323
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: Lively claims that after being sexually harassed, Baldoni's team orchestrated

324
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 1: this campaign against her, and she includes in her lawsuit

325
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:50,280
Speaker 1: hundreds of text messages between Baldoni and his pr team,

326
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 1: including one that read they could quote bury her, referring

327
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 1: to livelythere.

328
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,040
Speaker 2: For his part, Baldoni says he has emails and texts

329
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 2: as well an overwhelming amount of tampered untampered rather evidence

330
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:06,840
Speaker 2: that proves Lively Rentals and their team attempted to destroy

331
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:11,920
Speaker 2: him and his team by disseminating grossly edited, unsubstantiated, new

332
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 2: and doctored information to the media. So they're both just

333
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,200
Speaker 2: throwing all these accusations back and forth at each other

334
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,639
Speaker 2: and their respective teams. All this has to do with

335
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 2: smear campaigns, and a lot of this, a lot of

336
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,919
Speaker 2: folks will tell you happens behind the scenes all the

337
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:28,920
Speaker 2: time and is just being brought into light, these organized

338
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:32,400
Speaker 2: campaigns by pr people who plant these stories, and now

339
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,480
Speaker 2: it's just gotten really, really ugly and it's out there

340
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 2: for all to see.

341
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,560
Speaker 1: Now. Yeah, look, and we're not saying one team is

342
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 1: correct versus the other, but you and I both know

343
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,920
Speaker 1: in the media industry as well, this is what happens

344
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,200
Speaker 1: when people are after each other or want to seek

345
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 1: revenge or are how to destroy someone. They plant rumors

346
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,880
Speaker 1: and items into newspapers, etc.

347
00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 3: This goes on all the time.

348
00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:01,640
Speaker 1: And to that, Baldoni is also suing The New York

349
00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,520
Speaker 1: Times for libel for two hundred and fifty million dollars.

350
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:08,600
Speaker 1: He's accusing the media company of publishing a one sided

351
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 1: article that bolstered Lively's allegations and contained what they say

352
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 1: was doctor evidence doctored text messages. The Time says it

353
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 1: stands by its reporting.

354
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,720
Speaker 2: And despite all this mess the film was a hit

355
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,680
Speaker 2: box office success. It grows three hundred and fifty one

356
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,840
Speaker 2: million dollars worldwide to be continued.

357
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:28,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, but at what a cost?

358
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:28,600
Speaker 2: All right?

359
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:30,400
Speaker 1: Next up on our run, former New York City Mayor

360
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 1: Rudy Giuliani has declared victory after reaching a settlement with

361
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 1: the two Georgia election workers he defamed publicly and repeatedly

362
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 1: accusing them of helping steal the twenty twenty election from Trump.

363
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:43,439
Speaker 2: Full details of the settlement have not been released, but

364
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 2: a letter assigned by both sides says that once certain

365
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,919
Speaker 2: conditions are met, it would result in the conclusion of

366
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 2: all the degation. The election workers legal teams that they

367
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:56,439
Speaker 2: agreed to allow Giuliani to keep his property. That was

368
00:18:56,480 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 2: awfully nice of them, actually, and also some other prize

369
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:03,840
Speaker 2: possessions in exchange for an undisclosed amount of compensation and

370
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,160
Speaker 2: his promise not to defame the women again.

371
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:06,520
Speaker 3: Yeah.

372
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 1: I think that was their biggest thing. They wanted him

373
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 1: to stop. And so this means Juliana gets to hang

374
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:14,280
Speaker 1: on to all of his treasures that he was so

375
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 1: unwilling to hand over, including that ten room apartment on

376
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:20,640
Speaker 1: the Upper east Side, his Palm Beach condo, that vintage

377
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 1: Mercedes Benz convertible to signed Joe Demaggio, Jersey and all

378
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,359
Speaker 1: those rings, those Yankees rings he was trying to hold

379
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,200
Speaker 1: on to. He had previously been ordered to pay down

380
00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 1: the one hundred and forty eight million dollar judgment against

381
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:35,200
Speaker 1: him by handing over all of these valuables and real

382
00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 1: estate rather.

383
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:39,160
Speaker 2: Two election workers or released a statement following the announcement

384
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,720
Speaker 2: saying that the past four years have been a living nightmare.

385
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,760
Speaker 2: We've fought to clear our names, restore our reputations, improved

386
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 2: that we did nothing wrong. They called it a major

387
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:50,879
Speaker 2: milestone in their journey and they can now move forward

388
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:51,600
Speaker 2: with their lives.

389
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, that makes sense, but it still is unclear how

390
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 1: Juliani is going to pay this.

391
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,480
Speaker 3: Undisclosed amount of money to the election workers.

392
00:19:57,840 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 1: And by the way, he still faces criminal chargers in

393
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 1: two states related to the twenty twenty election and what

394
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:06,400
Speaker 1: he said and did, and my goodness, yesterday was crazy.

395
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 1: In this court room in Manhattan, he was expected to

396
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 1: show up and start to testify.

397
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:11,960
Speaker 3: He never showed up.

398
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 1: And then finally, hours later, when everyone was confused, this

399
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 1: announcement of a settlement came out right.

400
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,639
Speaker 2: We'll continue our run now on this Friday morning with

401
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 2: the space X Starship. It was destroyed when it broke

402
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 2: apart during the test flight yesterday, creating what looked like

403
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:30,640
Speaker 2: a meteor shower in the sky.

404
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 1: The ship launched from the SpaceX facility in South Texas

405
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 1: late yesterday afternoon, and during the ascent, a couple of

406
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:39,359
Speaker 1: engines dropped out and then all contact was lost with

407
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:43,560
Speaker 1: the ship. SpaceX later said that Starship experienced a rapid,

408
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:48,800
Speaker 1: unscheduled disassembly during its ascent burn With a test like this,

409
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 1: success comes from what we learn, and today's flight will

410
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,720
Speaker 1: help us improve Starship's reliability.

411
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:59,480
Speaker 2: SpaceX CEO Elon must put it this way, success is uncertain,

412
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:04,320
Speaker 2: but entertainment is guaranteed. That message on social media came

413
00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:06,119
Speaker 2: along with a video of what appears to be the

414
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:10,400
Speaker 2: Starship hurling back to Earth, but in countless pieces streaking

415
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 2: across the sky.

416
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:15,440
Speaker 1: Videos began circulating on social media showing these spectacular demise

417
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 1: to the ship.

418
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:17,320
Speaker 3: The FAA took the step of.

419
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 1: Alerting pilots in the area of possible debris, and several

420
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:21,840
Speaker 1: were actually diverted.

421
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:25,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, this was a test flight of the SpaceX Starship,

422
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 2: so there was no crew on board. Despite the loss

423
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:29,840
Speaker 2: of the ship, another part of the test flight was

424
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 2: a success. The ship was attached to a huge rocket booster.

425
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 2: When it took off. Shortly after launch, the ship and

426
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 2: rocket booster separated from each other. You've seen this stuff before,

427
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 2: So the ship was supposed to go on to space

428
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,159
Speaker 2: obviously it didn't happen in this case. And then the

429
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 2: huge rocket booster supposed to gently return to Earth. It

430
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 2: did that with controlled burns until the booster was literally

431
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 2: caught by these huge mechanical clamps called chopsticks. Now, if

432
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 2: you haven't seen the launch and haven't seen the video,

433
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:06,440
Speaker 2: the successful part was just as interesting as spectacular as

434
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 2: the part that failed. This is a new technology that

435
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 2: they are testing. But you can send this booster up

436
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 2: literally bring it back down to be caught by these

437
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 2: huge sticks. It was fascinating to watch. I encourage you

438
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:19,000
Speaker 2: to check it out.

439
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 3: If you haven't, I can tell you are really excited.

440
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:24,000
Speaker 2: It was amazing because the headlines talk about the failure,

441
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:25,480
Speaker 2: and then you go back and watch the video and say,

442
00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 2: holy hell, the success is really impressive.

443
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,359
Speaker 1: All right, I will check it out. All right, on

444
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:33,160
Speaker 1: the last leg of our run. Today, baseball has lost

445
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 1: a legend. Though it wasn't his playing career that made

446
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 1: him legendary.

447
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:41,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, Bob Yucker aka Mister Baseball passed away at the

448
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 2: age of ninety. He was the voice of his hometown

449
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 2: Milwaukee Brewers for more than fifty.

450
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:48,919
Speaker 1: Years, but he made an indelible mark in Hollywood as

451
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:51,720
Speaker 1: Harry Doyle in the baseball comedy Major League back in

452
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:54,439
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty nine. That movie included some big names like

453
00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 1: Charlie Sheen, Wesley Snipes, and Tom Behringer.

454
00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, but Uker delivered his own standout wormance as Doyle,

455
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:05,160
Speaker 2: the upbeat, lovable, optimistic, yet snarky, whiskey drinking play by

456
00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 2: play announcer for the upstart Cleveland Indians. In that movie,

457
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:11,680
Speaker 2: he delivered plenty of hilarious and memorable lines and one

458
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 2: that a lot of you use a lot maybe didn't

459
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,720
Speaker 2: realize it came from him in pop culture just a

460
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 2: bit outside that was from him in that movie.

461
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:19,840
Speaker 3: Well.

462
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,040
Speaker 1: He would go on to star in three Major League movies,

463
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:25,119
Speaker 1: but also he had several TV roles, including on Mister Belvedere.

464
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,640
Speaker 1: He started doing play by play for the Brewers back

465
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,879
Speaker 1: in nineteen seventy one. All the way through last season,

466
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,400
Speaker 1: he hadn't announced whether or not he was going to retire,

467
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:35,160
Speaker 1: so there was still a chance he was coming back

468
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:37,200
Speaker 1: to do even another season.

469
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,360
Speaker 2: And making the announcement about his passing, as family said,

470
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 2: he had recently been treated for small cell lung cancer.

471
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,960
Speaker 2: Among his many honors, he was honored by the Baseball

472
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:46,719
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame in two thousand and three with their

473
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 2: annual award that recognized as one broadcaster for major contributions

474
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:56,120
Speaker 2: to baseball. No, he was a backup catcher. This guy

475
00:23:56,400 --> 00:24:00,240
Speaker 2: is considered just baseball royalty, and he was a backup catch. Sure,

476
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:03,960
Speaker 2: he just put together such a career. Afterwards, always self deprecating,

477
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,440
Speaker 2: he said, how's a guy who only hit two hundred

478
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:08,680
Speaker 2: end up in the Hall of Fame? It just because

479
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 2: of his broadcasting career. Just to this guy was something

480
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:13,880
Speaker 2: I was reading up on him. I only knew him

481
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 2: from a major league for the most part. That is

482
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 2: where I fell in love with him. But man, what

483
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,760
Speaker 2: a legend in baseball that did not have a standout

484
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:22,440
Speaker 2: baseball career.

485
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 3: Very cool. His voice will be missed, but it lives

486
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:26,320
Speaker 3: on in the movies.

487
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 2: Right.

488
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,399
Speaker 1: We would like you to consider this as you go

489
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:33,359
Speaker 1: about your day on this Friday. This is our Quote

490
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:33,920
Speaker 1: of the Day.

491
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:38,199
Speaker 2: Sometimes people will pretend you're a bad person just so

492
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 2: they don't feel guilty about the things they do to you.

493
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:44,280
Speaker 3: Where'd you get this?

494
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 2: I'm not sure.

495
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:46,760
Speaker 3: He must be the pastor.

496
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 2: I think my party with that one. I remember it

497
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,800
Speaker 2: stays with me. But when you consider it that way,

498
00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:57,360
Speaker 2: oftentimes you do. People are trying to make you feel bad.

499
00:24:57,440 --> 00:24:59,400
Speaker 2: I tell you you did something wrong, make you feel

500
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:01,960
Speaker 2: guilty about something that has nothing to do with you.

501
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 2: It's just a way for them to feel better about

502
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:08,800
Speaker 2: mistreating you. So I put this on you. I can

503
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 2: say you're this, I can justify the treatment of you.

504
00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 2: This is a this is a heavy one.

505
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I think all of us have been on

506
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 1: both sides of this. But it's often said we try

507
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 1: to justify how we feel by making other people fit

508
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 1: into the story the way we need them to, so

509
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 1: that we can feel justified in our either feelings or action.

510
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:31,160
Speaker 1: So we'll give you the quot of the day one

511
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:34,040
Speaker 1: more time, just from some perspective on the Friday. On

512
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:37,760
